Herb Smashed Potatoes

Herb smashed potatoes are the perfect easy side dish for potato lovers! They’re roasted baby potatoes, combined with butter and herbs, to create a flavorful and fluffy potatoes dish.

This delicious smashed potatoes recipe is inspired by the Pioneer Woman Cooks recipe for Crash Hot Potatoes. A friend of ours made these for us last year and I loved the recipe, it’s a great variation of traditional roasted potatoes. The best part of these flavorful potatoes is how crispy the bottom gets when you roast them. I love to scrape all the crispy bits off the bottom of the pan and eat them before anyone else gets a chance to plate them up.

You can eat the herb smashed potatoes just as they are, or (my preference) pour a little melted butter on top as they are served. Potato heaven!
